Oh Dear!!! The new vw Baja racer!!!
Henry Webster:
--- Quote from: "Eeyore" ---The Beetle was a cheap, low tech, mass producable car (Volkswagen = Peoples Car). The new Beetle however is a crass attempt to sell the Golf for even more money. It lacks the original ethos of the Beetle and spoils the practicality of the Golf. And the winner is.........? :wink:
You can tell I'm an engineer! :lol:

I applaud it as a concept. Uses an established well-liked platform to create a useable, practical, modern, but silly car!
As a marketing exercise - spot on, bit like the BMW mini. I don't want one, but if I had to have a Mini or a Beetle then I might be tempted by the modern cars! :wink:

I wouldn't have either... I'd take the 150bhp Diesel Golf :D
But I think VW did alright with the beetle, I'd take it over a Mini anyday...
